That's what I thought.Well,anyway,he is --a breath of fresh air that daytime TV desperately needs.NO yelling.NO smarmy,unpalatable guests and subjects.NO arguing or bickering back and forth.Just an interesting,how-to ,type,show, I hope his show is a hit.

He may be a hunk, he may be a successful designer, he may be the object of women's and gay men's desires, but he is not a successful TV host. "The Nate Berkus Show" is struggling in the ratings.

Berkus, who found fame and fortune on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' for the past several seasons, got Oprah Winfrey to back his talk show. It was announced in the Spring that he would be replacing 'Martha' on most syndicated stations, and made his farewell appearance on 'Oprah' in June.

Like Oprah's other 'spin-offs' - 'Dr.Phil', 'Rachel Ray', and 'Dr. Oz' - advertisers were promised stellar ratings. Each of her spin-offs attract more than 3 million viewers per day. However, Berkus' show is struggling to keep 1 million per day as it gets beaten in most markets by Nancy Grace's "Swift Justice" - which is attracting 1.8 million viewers a day (not fantastic ratings, but her audience is growing while Berkus' audience continues to drop each week).
